Bring Her Back - Reviews

When the knives come out, you’ll be shrieking for your loved ones.

Deeply shocking, deeply upsetting, and one of my favorites of 2025 so far.

The film has a white-hot nerve of pain running inside it that burns right through the screen.

...turns familiar trauma-based horror into a traumatic experience. To sit through Bring Her Back is to endure it.

...quite the wild ride and shows the pair still have plenty of spooky tricks up their bloody sleeves.

The feel-bad movie of the year, "Bring Her Back" is so unapologetically disturbing that I wonder how a more casual moviegoer might react to it ... if they're brave enough to see it at all.

...a dark, emotional powerhouse of an experience, dealing with grief while using water as a murderous metaphor.

...a film you’ll watch from between your fingers.

...offers splashes of graphic imagery and streaks of cruelty, most of them involving children, that will test the mettle of even hardened horror fans.

...is every bit as good, as horrifying, as unforgettable as you've heard.

Sally Hawkins is sensationally unhinged.

The thrillingly diabolical Bring Her Back sees Sally Hawkins weaponise her perceived niceness.

...one of the most disturbing horror films I’ve seen in years.

...is the worst time you’ll have with a movie this year; an unflinching, uncompromising supernatural thriller that’s ultimately far sadder than it is scary.
